Traders Dynamic Index (TDI) – FX Replay Guide
The TDI Indicator in FX Replay combines momentum (RSI) and trend-following (MA) logic into one streamlined oscillator. It helps you identify entry/exit signals, trend bias, and momentum shifts in real time during backtesting and replay.
How to Add It:
- Open your chart in FX Replay
- Click the Indicators button
- Search for “TDI” or “Traders Dynamic Index”
- Apply it, and customize your settings (e.g., RSI length, smoothing period) as needed
What the Lines Mean:
- Green Line (RSI Price Line): Fast momentum tracker
- Red Line (Signal Line): Smoother RSI average — helps confirm direction
- Yellow Line (Market Base Line): Overall trend filter
- Optional Bands: Show volatility zones — extremes can indicate overbought/oversold conditions
Entry/Exit Logic:
Buy Setup:
- Green crosses above red (signal line), ideally above yellow (base line)
- Confirm with bullish candle or structure break
Sell Setup:
- Green crosses below red, especially below yellow line
- Use price action or liquidity zone rejection as confirmation
Backtesting in FX Replay:
-
Focus testing around session opens (London/NY) for high-probability setups
-
Example rule: “Only long if green > red and yellow is sloping up”
-
Journal results by signal type:
-
Cross
-
Divergence
-
Exit on base-line flip
Pro Tips:
-
Use volatility bands as dynamic overbought/oversold filters
-
Combine TDI with:
-
Supertrend for trend confirmation
-
SMMA for structure alignment
-
Liquidity sweep zones for precise entries
Strategy Use Case:
-
Enter trades based on TDI crossovers, filtered by yellow line direction
-
Exit when green crosses back over red, or when price invalidates the setup (e.g., break of previous low/high)
-
Tune RSI settings to match your timeframe:
-
Use 13 for swing trading
-
Use 7 for scalping
